Hi we’re Adam Smith and Louis van Velthooven. We’ve been named in the New Zealand Junior Rowing team. We will compete in the Junior World Champs in Eton London this August in the men’s coxed four, it’s an incredible opportunity and adventure that both of us have been working towards for four years.
Saturday, 9 July 2011
We started our Saturday training with an hours sleep-in, before heading down to the water to pump out 7 2km sub-max pieces with the whole Juniors squad. A head/side wind for half of the pieces caused a bit of trouble for all crews but we managed to pull through and produced a good performance. After a brief breakfast of some beautiful eggs and bacon, we were back to finish the days training with our last half hour erg and we all achieved PB's! The rest of the day will be filled with a bit of sleeping and maybe a trip into 'The Base' in hamilton or watching some college rugby on the rugby channel.
